Question about setting lever

[Lc130]

Hi All

This is an EB 1575N Roskopf pin leverthat I'm learning on. https://17jewels.info/movements-en/movements-e-en/movements-e-eb-en/417-eb-1575n.html

I don't see where the setting lever attaches.  In the pics below, it's simply resting on the stem.  The link above has a similiar pic.  As far as I can tell,  the dial is the only thing that goes over it.  You can also see that there's a threaded post that's attached.  Wouldn't something screw onto it.

All comments welcome.

Not sure if I'm understanding your question? Then you don't quite have things correct in the picture. The detent the protruding pin goes into the slot of the stem not where it is now. The setting lever goes into the notch of the clutch wheel as opposed to where it is now and then everything should be fine. Sometimes on really cheap watches they minimalize the components.

Is this how you tried installing it ? Have you encountered any issues ?

The screw on the setting lever is broken of. You need to find a new screw and it will probably work as it should. The setting lever arm should rest on the clutch wheel . Like in the picture. No need for a setting lever spring on this movement as it seams.

It didn't occur to me that the screw was sheared (beginner here).   Under higher magnification I can see the shear in the 2nd pic.

It looks like the it should be screwed into the hole highlighted below. Is that correct?  

Is a pin vice (which I don't have) the optimal tool for removing the broken screw?  Finally, Cousins UK sells "All Kinds Mixed Screws".  Is this a good place to start for a replacement?

Many thanks to all!

A pin vice will do yes. Can try with some tweezers but the screw might be too tight.

Screws shouldn't be a problem to find, that cousins assortment might help...

That screw should be easy to remove as you have something to grip. A Knipex endcutter or similar . Or a small bench vice. As for the screw i think need a setting lever screw. But maybe can get away with a normal screw in the right size .

Amazingly it came out easily with a pair of long nose pliers.  

Thanks
